Fixes enum query parameter serialization for cpp-qt-client generator.
Problem
For enum query parameters, the template was incorrectly using
asJsonObject()
which returns{"value": "enumValue"}
and then iterating over keys, using "value" as the parameter name instead of the actual parameter name.This resulted in incorrect URLs like:
?value=property instead of ?scope=property
Solution
Added special handling for both inline enums (isEnum) and referenced enums (isEnumRef) in the
api-body.mustache template
to useasJson()
directly, which returns the correct enum string value for URL serialization.Changes
Modified modules/openapi-generator/src/main/resources/cpp-qt-client/api-body.mustache to detect both enum types and use direct string serialization
Updated cpp-qt-client samples (though petstore samples don't contain enum query parameter tests to demonstrate this specific fix)
Context
Completes the fix started in PR #21211 which added the
asJsonObject()
method to make enum code compile, but the template logic was still incorrect for URL query parameter serialization.Testing
✅ Built OpenAPI Generator successfully
✅ Generated cpp-qt-client samples without errors
✅ Verified enum parameters now serialize correctly in generated code
Note
The petstore samples don't contain enum query parameter examples to showcase this functionality. Future contributors may want to add enum query parameter tests to better demonstrate this fix.
PR checklist
Commit all changed files.
This is important, as CI jobs will verify all generator outputs of your HEAD commit as it would merge with master.
These must match the expectations made by your contribution.
You may regenerate an individual generator by passing the relevant config(s) as an argument to the script, for example
./bin/generate-samples.sh bin/configs/java*
.IMPORTANT: Do NOT purge/delete any folders/files (e.g. tests) when regenerating the samples as manually written tests may be removed.
